Message from the team
Experience
Can you play anywhere in the UK?
Yes! We are based in Sheffield, and can play anywhere within 50 miles at no extra travel cost. For further distances we will add £1 per mile to the quote. For particularly long distance requests, we would also require overnight accommodation costs at a cheap local hotel.
Does the band provide all the equipment?
Yes! We are fully self-contained. We bring a professional-grade PA system and high-end stage lighting. All we need from your venue is a flat performance space (minimum 5m x 3m floorspace for the full band) and at least two independent power sockets.
How long do you need to set up?
For the full band, we typically require about 90 minutes to load in, set up, and soundcheck. We always aim to do this discreetly. If you’ve booked a “Down The Aisle” or “Drinks Reception” as extras, we arrive much earlier to ensure everything is ready before your first guest walks in.
Will you learn a specific song for us?
Absolutely! If you book our First Dance add-on, we will learn and arrange your special song specifically for you. There’s nothing quite like hearing your favourite track played live for that first dance moment.
Can we choose the setlist?
We’ve spent a long time perfecting our set to ensure the dancefloor stays full all night – we know when to keep the energy up or throw a slow jam in. However, if there’s any songs from our songlist you definitely don’t want, let us know when making the booking.
Are you insured?
Yes! We hold Public Liability Insurance (PLI) and all of our equipment is PAT tested annually. We can send these certificates directly to your venue or wedding coordinator upon request.
What if a band member is ill?
In the very rare event of a band member being unable to perform (it hasn’t happened yet), don’t panic! We have a local network of trusted substitute session musicians who know our set inside out. The show will go on.
